Daily record breaks Sunday as temperatures rise over 90 in DFW

Another First Alert Weather Day is in place due to near record-breaking high temperatures across North Texas. The highs this time of the year should be in the 70s, but Sunday hit 95 degrees, breaking the previous record that was set at 93 in 1995.

A cold front will move through the area late on Sunday. Conditions will stay dry, and winds will be breezy, coming from the south, gusting up to 30 mph. Compressional heating will take place ahead of the front. 

Since conditions will be dry, windy and warmer-than-average, fire danger will be present to the west of the metroplex. Please avoid any activities that may cause a spark.

The cold front will cool temperatures off into the mid-70s on Monday. However, this is still above average. The warming trend continues throughout the week as a mid-level ridge persists. Highs will be back in the 90s by mid-week. 

It looks like the next chance for rain is the end of the month.
